Leeds United have submitted a €28 million bid for Weston McKennie, but Juventus want at least €35 million as negotiations continue.
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Leeds United’s €28 million offer for Weston McKennie. Juventus are open to a sale but may want more for the USMNT international. The Serie A giants reportedly want at least €35 million for the versatile midfielder as talks continue between the two clubs.
Weston McKennie will likely leave Juventus before the end of this month. The 24-year-old midfielder seeks a new challenge elsewhere. He is not necessarily considered a key player in Massimiliano Allegri’s plans, but he has played plenty of games this season.
Owing to the ongoing problems at Juventus, many players may depart. Alternatively, the club could also look at cashing on certain players to obtain the maximum value. McKennie could become one of the departures.
Leeds United have been interested in a move, with Jesse Marsch keen to bring his compatriot to Elland Road. After talks with Juventus in the last weeks, they have made an offer worth €28 million to bring the versatile American midfielder to the Premier League.

Leeds have already agreed on personal terms with McKennie. The contract length and salary details are yet to come out disclosed. While Juventus are open to selling, the Serie A giants may want more money. Fabrizio Romano suggests the Serie A heavyweights are asking around €35 million to close the deal as talks between the two clubs continue.
Leeds United are confident of securing the services of the USMNT international despite some late interest from Arsenal. The Gunners are in the market but may go in a different direction, considering McKennie may not suit their overall profile.
For now, Leeds and Juventus remain locked in talks and could find an agreement sooner rather than later. The Whites may want to pay less than €35 million for the versatile American midfielder. And the two sides could likely come to a middle ground and seal the deal this week.
McKennie will become Leeds United’s third January arrival. They have already signed Georgino Rutter and Maximilian Wober from Hoffenheim and RB Salzburg, respectively in the January transfer window.
